This research paper attempts to examine and analyze three newdeveioped developed and widely-used policy-planning methods. Namely: "Scenario-Planning", "Future State Visioniog Technique" and "Strategic Planning". "Scenario-Planning" can effectively organize a variety of seemingly unrelated economic, technological, political, societal information and translate it into a framework for judgment for policy markers. This paper also illustrates how did the Royal Dutch/Shell Company successfully cope with the first world oil crisis during 1973 by using scenario-planning method. Now, as we approach the year 2000, and as mankind enters into the new millennium, how are we going to build our vision for the next century? This paper introduces the "Future State Visioning Technique". It also exemplifies the remarkable improvement in safety performance at National Rubber Company in Canada by applying this technique. As for "Strategic Planning", this paper tries to accomplish two purposes: (1) How do policy-makers manage the state of uncertainties when they are confronted with a decision problem? And (2) How do policy-makers utilize "brain-storming" approach to search for the "optimal" problem-solving policy alternatives? Our analysis provides innovative ideas and pragmatic proposals.
